The LEGO Group and Epic Games Announce Partnership To Create a Kid-friendly Space in the Metaverse
A long-term partnership committed to building an immersive and creative digital experience for kids.
The LEGO Group and Epic Games have joined in a long-term partnership to create a safe space within the metaverse that is kid-friendly.
The partnership aims to shape the future of the metaverse and combine elements of the creative physical and digital world. Both companies are set to team up to build an immersive, creatively inspiring and engaging digital experience for kids and their families to enjoy together. The new plans are in line with developing a family-friendly digital experience that gives kids the tools to seemingly intertwine their digital building experience with their physical one.
The CEO of the LEGO Group Niels B. Christiansen, said in a statement, “Kids enjoy playing in physical and digital worlds and move seamlessly between the two. We believe there is huge potential for them to develop life-long skills such as creativity, collaboration and communication in both.” CEO and Founder of Epic Games Tim Sweeney chimes in and discusses that as the metaverse evolves, it is important to reshape “how people meet, play, work, learn and interact in a virtual, 3D world.”
